After checking in and lingering in the waiting area, you may be invited back to talk to:

Trudy Dickens , Accounts Representative obtained a diploma in Medical Claims and Biling Specialist Sudies from U.S. Career Institute, Fort Collins, CO.  Trudy is responsible for patient accounts from the time they are entered into the system until they are paid or closed out.  She interfaces with all of the insurance companies on our patient's behalf in an effort to get maximum coverage with minimal out-of-pocket expense for the patient.  Our patients can help Trudy in her efforts by being very precise about their insurance coverage and bringing cards to their visits.  "Miss Trudy" has been a dependable, part of Dr. Valentine's practice since 1999 and enjoys working here because she feels good when she can help our patients resolve their billing issues.  Her greatest satisfaction comes from the patient's smile and "thank you".  During her off time, she enjoys reading and is involved in the Special Services Ministry at Little Zion
